Famous quotes containing the word philosophy:

    “If this is philosophy it is at any rate a philosophy that is not in its right mind.”
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)

    “Irish? In truth I would not want to be anything else. It is a state of mind as well as an actual country. It is being at odds with other nationalities, having quite different philosophy about pleasure, about punishment, about life, and about death. At least it does not leave one pusillanimous.”
    —Edna O’Brien (b. c. 1932)
